During a recent media appearance promoting the "WWE: UNREAL" documentary series, CM Punk participated in a "blind ranking" exercise featuring 10 current and all-time WWE stars. The rankings, unveiled by content creator Arenoun, contained some unexpected placements, notably Punk’s own rival landing at the bottom and The Miz taking the top spot.
In this blind ranking challenge, names had to be assigned without knowing the identities of the other wrestlers on the list. Punk ranked stars like John Cena at number four and Roman Reigns at six, before hesitantly placing Drew McIntyre at second. This left The Miz as the last name and automatically gave him the number one position.
The full blind ranking list is as follows:
- The Miz
- Drew McIntyre
- Cody Rhodes
- John Cena
- Bryan Danielson
- Roman Reigns
- The Rock
- Bray Wyatt
- Seth Rollins
- Goldberg
While ranking, Punk shared some insights, placing the late Bray Wyatt at eighth due to his life and career being “too short.” He also comfortably positioned long-time rivals Seth Rollins and Goldberg near the bottom of the list.
These rankings come just days before Punk looks to cement his legacy even further. He is slated to challenge Gunther for the World Heavyweight Championship during the two-night SummerSlam Premium Live event in one of the weekend’s highlight matches.
Fan Take: This ranking sheds light on CM Punk’s perspective of WWE’s biggest names, stirring conversation among fans about the current landscape and history of wrestling. His upcoming title match adds extra excitement, as a win could shift the balance of power and mark a defining moment in WWE history.
